Wrestling veteran Dominik Mysterio believes it's time for Rey Mysterio to retire.
The Judgment Day star recently had an interview with The Schmo to promote WrestleMania 41 from Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas on April 19 & 20, 2025. He talked about things such as Liv Morgan being the best women's champion of all time, why he doesn't wear a mask and more.
When Schmo said that Dom had been in the business for only 4 years, the 27-year-old corrected him. He recalled making his debut for WWE at the young age of 7, as part of the SummerSlam 2005 storyline between Rey Mysterio and Eddie Guerrero:
I'm good but you got one thing wrong. You said 4 years I've been in uh I've been doing this since '05. I technically debuted in SummerSlam for the custody of myself. So yeah, next year will be 20 years for me.
Yeah, I was like 7-8 years old. Never looked back. My real dad Eddie Guerero gave me like a real taste of what it was and like you said never looked back and I've loved every minute of it.
He Needs To Retire: Dominik Mysterio
When asked about Rey Mysterio continuing his wrestling career at the age of 49, Dominik Mysterio said that he must retire. Dirty Dom explained that Rey is washed and he needs to go home:
I want him to retire. I’ve been telling his old ass he’s got to go. He’s old, he’s washed. He’s still hiding behind that ugly mask. He’s ugly and that’s why he’s hiding behind that mask.
He needs to retire; he needs to go home. Just let me do what I do best and that’s put the Mysterio name on my back and carry it and take it to places it’s never been before.
This week's episode of Monday Night Raw saw Dominik joking about making a claim for Gunther's world title. Carlito then pleaded his case with Adam Pearce. The Raw General Manager in response has announced a match between Dominik and a 'former world champion' for next week's Raw.
